The popularity of skins in CS2 depends on many different factors. Updates momentarily draw attention to new items, and having a skin appear in the inventory of a famous esports athlete can popularize a design that was previously unnoticed. Crafting ideas, seasonal changes, and personal preferences also play a role. Here’s a compilation of skins that made it to the most popular list on LIS-SKINS by the end of 2024.
AK-47 Slate
This minimalist skin for the AK-47 maintains a steady demand. Slate is often chosen as a base for various crafts – team emblems, inscriptions, and combinations of amusing images look good against its plain black background. Depending on the condition, its cost can be around three dollars – add it to your collection and implement your own ideas; you can also buy stickers from us.
USP-S Cortex
If you don’t want to limit yourself to minimalism, consider another "evergreen" classic – USP-S Cortex. The silencer of this pistol is adorned with pink brain-like swirls that form the inscription USP. The handle of the pistol features a skull with an exploding top from which its contents are scattered in all directions.
USP-S Ticket to Hell
Another popular skin for the same pistol is the USP-S Ticket to Hell. Its affordability is one of the reasons for its popularity – even in "Factory New" condition, it costs no more than one and a half dollars. This black and white skin is decorated with various drawings and white inscriptions, the most noticeable of which is "DEAD SILENCE" on the silencer.
M4A1 Night Terror
Another gun that would look good in a horror movie is the M4A1 Night Terror. The metallic surface is partially stained with red and covered with crimson lines, arrows, and inscriptions, including Pain, Agony, and Insomnia.
AWP Mortis
One of the most popular skins for the AWP remains the AWP Mortis. Its design, inspired by tarot cards, is not too flashy but remains quite recognizable. Because of the intricate design, the skin looks best in good quality. A "Factory New" variant costs 6-7 dollars.
AWP Atheris
Another interesting option for the sniper rifle is the AWP Atheris. An emerald-green snake occupies much of the body. The design is successfully complemented by green accents on the barrel and sight. A "Field Tested" quality skin costs about the same as the previous one, but a "Factory New" sample is slightly more expensive – 11-12 dollars.
AK-47 Phantom Disruptor
It’s worth mentioning another skin for the AK-47, this time inspired by monstrous images – the AK-47 Phantom Disruptor. The psychedelic patterns covering the rifle's body depict tentacles, spikes, and the jaws of mysterious monsters, which stand out against the black background.
AWP Chromatic Aberration
The popularity of the AWP Chromatic Aberration is no surprise, as the skin's coloring creates an interesting optical effect. Most of the skin is covered with bright pink and black stripes, but they are printed with some displacement, as are the inscriptions on the stock.
Desert Eagle Light Rail
Fans of futuristic designs will definitely like the Desert Eagle Light Rail. Added to the game five years ago, it continues to attract players' attention. As the float increases, the paint on the rear part of the weapon wears off, and the coating on the barrel changes its shade. A "Factory New" quality skin will cost about 3 dollars, so you can definitely treat yourself to a variant with minimal defects.
Desert Eagle Printstream
The fact that the Desert Eagle Printstream is on the list of the most popular, despite being pricier than previous pistol skins – is a compelling proof of how much it is valued by players. It is part of the Printstream series, which includes several items with a similar design – stylish black inscriptions and logos on a white background.
Glock-18 Moonrise
Another pistol skin that many players value is the Glock-18 Moonrise. The upper part of the body is decorated with black silhouettes of a cityscape against a purple background. Their placement depends on the pattern index, so you can encounter many different variants.
All these skins and many others are available at LIS-SKINS at very attractive prices – take a look at the catalog and see for yourself!
